    When there is no police to respond to your call because the force has been reduced by 1400 people the effect is the same thing. BTW the Title is about defunding not disbanding. How does cutting positions and money for training improve policing? Improved training and supervision improves things defunding doesn't.

    ANd when they made these announcements just last week, they said that they were following other police departments across the country that were changing their own policies as well.

    So city budgets are being adjusted accordingly to accommodate the new services.

    This is what Biden is talking about.

    AND IF YOU WEREN'T AN IDIOT- YOU WOULD ALREADY UNDERSTAND WHAT BIDEN WAS TALKING ABOUT.
    woman on 911: "Help! My husband has been beating me and my children. We are locked in the bathroom and we are afraid!"
    dispatcher: "Would you ask him to come to the phone? We have a counselor on staff who would like do discuss his problems with him"......

    ROFL. The fear you have of your own neighbors is fascinating. Here's a tip: buy a gun and learn to use it. Here's a second tip: Man the fuck up.

The R word is just like using the N word. Both words should disappear from our language.

    But defunding the police is a very stupid thing and will result in the deaths of many poor and disadvantaged people in the hood.

    Well dickwad I have several guns and know how to use them and I CC. My son is a member of the North Tarrant County SWAT team. If I had to call the police he would beat them here. I'm not concerned for myself or my family. I'm worried for the people that are forced by circumstances to live in poor communities where many of the criminal types also live. In my town the police are not in danger of being defunded.

    That's not at all what he was talking about. He wants to move money away from police funding. Ie DEFUND.

    Yep this thread is about defunding not abolishing the police. So you are going off on a false tangent.

    Most people here don't seem to know there's a difference.

    58% of Americans oppose defunding and 31% are for it. A 27 point spread.
